Beautiful little movie

I was concerned looking at the cast, if the star billing might affect the screenplay. I promise you that you will not see actors in their roles, only characters. Every one performed extremely well. Will and pena took the heavy load while the rest brought a lot of fun. This movie is strange! I still dont understand what collatoral beauty means! There are a couple of loose ends i don't want to spoil but defenitely watch this movie. None of that takes anything away from the movie. Almost teared twice and the last time i did it was pursuit of happiness.

Can you say something about Kate Winslet's performance?

[–] goutham-jacksparrow 8 years ago

She is one of the supporting actors and she did it to perfection. A gloomy nice lady. The movie just provides abstracts of their life. Kate has nothing outstanding to do but she does it well.

thanks for telling about Kate's performance. how much screen time she has if you can tell. Also do u thing this movie can be up for some awards ??

The movie itself is about 90 minutes. No character is under utilized maybe except keira knightleys. Awards are a long shot as none of the characters have that much screen time. Maybe will can be nominated. He truely emulated a great performance. Kate played an emotional woman to perfection. Norton is refreshingly fun to watch. Pena is a heart breaker.
